Chapter 450: Japanese Gantz's Desperate Counterattack
Bonnie blocked her left hand in front of her, and strong static electricity flashed among her fur. Seeing this scene, Kei Kurono and Masaru Kato quickly raised their hands to show they had no hostility.
And seeing Reika Shimohira and the others, Bonnie still didn't relax her posture. Her whole body was tense, and Busoshoku Haki (Armament Haki) covered her body surface.
The team battle mission was already cruel enough, and suddenly the Purge Mission and Cleaners appeared. The sudden changes in this world, as well as the powerful raid from White Temple, caught her off guard.
At this moment, having lost her teammates and her right hand, she was like a frightened cat. The slightest perception of danger would make her attack desperately and then flee.
"Your hand..."
Reika Shimohira was also extremely shocked to see the miserable state of the powerful Bonnie losing her right hand. She immediately wanted to step forward, but Bonnie aimed her claws at her.
"Bonnie, calm down, we are here to help you!"
The few of them spent a good effort appeasing her to slightly lower Bonnie's guard. The main reason was that Bonnie indeed noticed from her reputation panel that her reputation with the Tokyo Team didn't drop but increased.
Kei Kurono quickly stated his purpose, but before they could continue to describe what happened afterwards, the Black Ball's teleportation had already begun.
Reika Shimohira's head began to disappear from the top. This scene actually made Bonnie's eyes light up.
She immediately reached out and grabbed Reika Shimohira. Sure enough, her head also began to disappear bit by bit. When the Gantz mission ended and teleported people back to the Black Ball room, one only needed to grab the body of a Black Ball Team member to be teleported together.
After Bonnie teleported into the Black Ball room, her right hand also grew back.
She was currently in a special state. On one hand, she was the Reincarnation Alien Bonnie listed as a kill target by Gantz. On the other hand, she was a member of the Tokyo Team.
The few returned to the Black Ball room, and before they had time to relax, new images had already begun to appear on the Black Ball.
Even the song that would play before every mission started didn't appear this time.
This performance, in Bonnie's view, meant there was a high probability that the people manipulating Gantz were so desperate that they had somewhat lost their composure.
[Target: Reincarnation Alien / BOSS / Mercenary Tao]
[Characteristics: Strong, Terrifying, Cruel]
[Score: 100+]
[Kill Mercenary Tao, the whole team gets full marks!!]
For the first time, a prompt appeared on the Black Ball stating that the whole team would get full marks after the kill. This made Kei Kurono and the others look at each other, all feeling strange.
"It's that guy..."
Daizaemon Kaze had a serious expression. Looking at the picture appearing in the Black Ball, it was a handsome man's face, but he knew very well that this guy was definitely just wearing human skin.
That kind of power far exceeded any alien they had seen.
Just the aftermath of the attack was enough to completely blow them away, and without even taking action, it rendered the Tokyo Team incapacitated.
Kenzo Sakata wore sunglasses, his expression also serious. In fact, in that brief moment of contact, he had tried to use his psychic powers to affect this Mercenary Tao, but the opponent's speed was so fast that his eyes couldn't catch him, let alone lock on with his psychic powers.
"A piece of advice from a former teammate: I advise you to give up this mission."
Bonnie held her wrist and moved it a bit. Gantz's technology in this aspect was no different from the Infinite Dimensional Space; the recovered hand was perfectly normal.
She pointed at Mercenary Tao in the Black Ball and said briefly:
"That guy is a monster, completely not someone you can match."
"In your eyes, I am very strong, right?"
Bonnie spoke, and the others nodded, but Bonnie continued:
"This very strong me was just severed an arm by another Reincarnation Alien in one move, and almost killed;"
"And that Reincarnation Alien who could defeat me in one move probably can't take a single hit from this Mercenary Tao..."
Bonnie hadn't seen Mercenary Tao in action, but she knew very well what kind of power those Title Level Reincarnators had. They were guys who could easily wipe out her team or White Temple.
And Mercenary Tao, before that terrifying B711 Secondary World mission started, had already single-handedly killed Title Level Reincarnators.
Their strength was completely on a different dimension.
Masaru Kato completely didn't understand. They were all "Reincarnation Aliens," so why was the strength gap so huge?
But facing the opportunity for everyone to leave Gantz together, how could they bear to give it up?
"As long as we have enough people and shoot together, no matter what, we can always kill him, right..."
At this time, human body parts began to appear bit by bit in the room again. Some appeared starting from the feet, and some appeared starting from the head.
These people were usually humans who had died recently, whose information was collected by Gantz to enter Gantz.
A handsome long-haired man was the first to appear. Seeing this person, Kei Kurono's expression changed drastically. Shion Izumi?!
This person was the captain of the Tokyo Team a long time ago. He got a full score and chose to erase his memories and leave Gantz. Later, because of the massacre, he returned to Gantz and was eventually killed by vampires.
But clearly, no one had obtained 100 points to resurrect him. How could Gantz directly resurrect him at this moment?!
What made them even more concerned was what appeared next. Bonnie's body stiffened, seeing familiar faces appear again. For a moment, she actually didn't know whether to be happy or angry.
The delicate-featured [Lotus], whose gender was hard to distinguish, and the robust, mild-tempered good guy [Amaterasu] were successively cloned by Gantz.
More and more people appeared, and each one revealed a fierce aura.
How could Bonnie not know? This was probably because the chaebols controlling the Tokyo Team's Black Ball had actively intervened in this game.
Mercenary Tao's existence had already made those people unable to sleep or eat in peace.
That's why they actively started to break the rules and cloned these powerful Black Ball Team members.
As the personnel began to assemble, both sides of the Black Ball popped open, and various weapons and strengthening suits appeared one by one.
This was evidence that the mission teleportation was about to begin.
"What's going on, Bonnie, why are we here?"
Before Amaterasu could figure out what happened, Lotus already had an expression that was half-crying, half-smiling. He shook his head and showed an apologetic look to Bonnie.
"Sorry, Bonnie. It seems we died early in disappointment and caused the team to lose points..."
Listening to Lotus's usual gentle tone, Bonnie's eyes instantly blurred. She looked at her teammates and said:
"Everyone, listen to me, we must stall for time. Just wait until the full moon... only when the full moon arrives can I protect you~"
"Before then, please survive as best as you can."
Lotus shook his head. He put on his strengthening suit, and the top of his head began to disappear bit by bit. The teleportation had begun.
"What nonsense are you talking about, Captain Bonnie? Ama and I have already... naturally we will use these worthless lives to stall for time for you!"
Ama also nodded. His head had already been completely teleported away.
Lotus looked at Bonnie one last time and said:
"Bonnie, please live on well in our place."
Hum~
Because the head was teleported first, vision actually recovered before mobility.
The Tokyo Team looked around and seemed to be in some field. Looking at the distance from Mount Fuji, it was obvious they were no longer in Tokyo.
This was the first time they were teleported outside of Tokyo.
A steady stream of humans wearing strengthening suits was being teleported around them. The number far exceeded the total number of the Tokyo Team.
Bonnie knew that probably the chaebols within Japan had all united, wanting to fight against Mercenary Tao.
But this kind of action was highly likely to be useless.
In the next moment, a palpitating sense of crisis appeared. Observation Haki sensed danger. She immediately pressed down Reika Shimohira and Lotus beside her and shouted.
"Careful!"
Hum!
A golden ray pierced the air from far away, shooting straight over. A Tokyo Team member standing not far from Bonnie was shot through the glabella without moving.
Pfft!
Blood and brain matter spurted instantly. The strengthening suit had no effect at all. This person swayed twice, fell to the ground, and ceased to breathe.
"Ah! Careful, the enemy is in the manor!"
Someone shouted. In the next moment, various H-Guns and Gravity Guns began firing randomly.
Bonnie, however, pressed everyone down and said:
"Nobody move, we just need to hold on."
"Hold on? Until when?"
Lotus was pressed to the ground, yet still spoke up to explain.
"Hold on until Mercenary Tao kills all those chaebols and seizes Gantz. Our mission will naturally be canceled..."
